Researchers recreated conditions after the Big Bang and found that time only travels one-way. During 2010, world-famous physicist Stephen Hawking proclaimed time travel possible. Now two electrical engineers, Igor Smolyaninov and Yu-Ju Hung, both from the University of Maryland, beg to disagree with the famous Oxford scientist. Their experiment described in "Modeling of Time with Metamaterials," recreates the conditions since the creation of the universe and shows time travel to be unattainable.
